Defect description

ON CERTAIN TRUCK CAMPERS AND CLASS C MOTOR HOMES EQUIPPED WITH SUBURBAN GLASS TOP, SEALED BURNER RANGES AND COOK TOPS WITH SERIAL NUMBERS INCLUDED IN A RANGE BEGINNING WITH 063413053 AND ENDING WITH 064704399, P/NOS. 2950A, 2951A, 2952A, AND 2953A, A THREADED CONNECTOR ON THE TUBE BETWEEN THE BURNER VALVE AND THE BURNER MAY NOT HAVE BEEN FULLY TIGHTENED DURING THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS.

Safety risk

IF THE THREADED CONNECTOR IS NOT PROPERLY TIGHTENED, IT IS POSSIBLE FOR THE GAS TO LEAK FROM THE CONNECTION WHEN THE BURNER IS TURNED ON. LP GAS IS HEAVIER THAN AIR AND ANY LEAKED GAS COULD ACCUMULATE IN AN ENCLOSED OR LOW AREA IN YOUR RECREATIONAL VEHICLE. A SUFFICIENT QUANTITY OF ACCUMULATED GAS, IF IGNITED, COULD CAUSE A FIRE OR EXPLOSION.

Manufacturer remedy

HOST IS WORKING WITH SUBURBAN TO REPAIR THESE COOKING APPLIANCES. OWNERS MAY CONTACT HOST AT 1-541-330-2328 OR SUBURBAN AT 423-775-2131.
